ZALA Aero Group (also called A-Level Aerosystems) is a Russian company specialising in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) development, located in Izhevsk, Russia.

[4] ZALA Aero is the only Russian company producing unmanned helicopters,[citation needed] portable anti-drone EW systems[5] and a VTOL drone.

[10][11] The Kub-BLA is a military UAV that can loiter over a combat area for an extended period and allegedly identifies targets using artificial intelligence.

[8] The loitering munition system KUB-BLA has successfully passed state tests and is recommended for adoption by the Russian army at the end of 2021.

It was reported in September 2023 that ZALA AERO has developed a loitering munition, named Italmas, with roughly 150–200 kilometres (93–124 mi) range allowing deeper penetration into enemy areas than the Lancet.

ZALA Aero has worked with Gazprom's Space Systems division to use UAVs to transmit real-time video over satellite channels.

[18] In 2019, ZALA Aero developed an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-borne detection system that employs artificial intelligence (AI) technology to recognise objects.
